This is just to say that I have decided to edit and/or delete most of my posts under all the names I have used (trublshtr, stiltrubld and bluemoon), but did not want to do this without an explanation to the forum.

I have the greatest admiration and respect for this forum and all the contributors to it and am also grateful for having my eyes opened to the problems and issues of the past, particularly concerning the harm done to children.

The reasons I became involved were related to gender issues in the SES and I feel now that the moment has passed, whatever effect this may have had to encourage change is now over and the time has come to put all this behind me and move forward.

I am extremely grateful to everyone for all the information and support, especially those of you I have had private discussions with.
